Scalar i2000
The next generation data center library that delivers more but demands less.
Scalar i2000



You're asking your staff to get more done with less these days; shouldn't you expect the same from your systems, too? Whether you're upgrading to a SAN for the first time or consolidating a collection of data centers, the ADIC Scalar i2000 meets the unique challenges of SAN backup and improves your capabilities while reducing the resources needed to manage backup operations. The embedded intelligence of the Scalar i2000's unique iPlatform architecture enhances performance and reliability through a single management view that includes library, drives, and connectivity through the fabric. Data-path readiness checks, drive performance optimization, and connectivity failover work together to keep your backup running.

Scale your system to meet today's budgets while easily adding capacity down the road with the industry's most advanced scalability architecture - capacity-on-demand. Throughout, the Scalar i2000 meets the demands of today's data centers, with native mixed-media support (LTO & SDLT), industry-leading density, rack-compatible form factor, and RAS features that include dual-redundant power, non-disruptive drive, power, and fan exchanges, and component-level fault isolation for faster, easier service.
